DON’T BE A ROTTEN APPLE 🍏

Wendy from My Wellness Niche

Take a fresh apple and cut it in half, it starts to go brown until it rots.

Take a whole Apple and leave in out in the environment - it starts to rot.

Expose us to the elements of every day living AND WE TOO SUFFER FROM OXIDATIVE STRESS....

Oxidative Stress is the cellular damage caused by an imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants in the body. We all have it!
BUT left unchecked, it accelerates the ageing process, and can cause inflammation, illness and disease.

When we reduce Oxidative Stress we then can function at a higher level and improve wellness. Being able to make our own Antioxidants is the key to helping our body deal with Free Radicals and Oxidative Stress overload.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
